If you think about it, really think about it, it is harder to say "Yes" than it is to say "No."
To say "Yes" is to give something of yourself and we are reluctant to do that. It should be my time, my money, my gifts, mine, mine, mine. After all, we're all 2-year-olds at heart with the toddler mentality of mine, mine, mine.
It is much harder to give that Yes.
How difficult was it for Mary, all those years ago, to give GOD her Yes? Her Yes changed the world and gave us our salvation.
I need to remember that my little yeses might change someone's world, at least a little bit. It might give a memory, a happy thought, immediate gratification, happiness, it might help buy someone's supper or help give them a warm place to stay.
I'm working on my own YES - because nothing I do is going to give us our salvation, but it might change someone's world.
